THE STAR OF BETHLEHEM: Presented by Christine Arens, Professional and Teaching Astrologer
Was the Star of Bethlehem an astronomical phenomenon? The general answer is “no.” It was not a comet, a significator of death. Nor was it a nova, as none were recorded during this time. So what was the “star” that the Magi followed and what is the most likely date for the birth of Christ that fits the facts that we have and the astrology of the times?
More than 30 years ago, Christine Arens’ mother challenged her to use astrology to work on the puzzle of the Star of Bethlehem. Her answers will amaze you!

The Burning Bowl Ceremony
Thursday, January 7 7-8pm $10
The Burning Bowl ceremony is a traditional ritual of release and letting go of what does not serve us now. The equinox, solstice and New Year all present opportunities for renewal and releasing everything in your life that is holding you back; especially negative thoughts and emotions, bad habits, unhealthy relationships, old hurts, grudges and regrets. Anything that burdens your mind.
Ask yourself these questions.
What do I want cleansed?
What do I want to give up?
What do I want gone from my life?
The Burning Bowl ceremony is also known as the Phoenix Ceremony. It is about letting go, but it is also about rising from the ashes, renewed as the Phoenix. Join us in this powerful celebration of letting go and rising renewed.
